He bought it a couple years ago. Needs a little rock but he just uses it for a DD. It will never be wheeled. Unless I can talk him in to selling it to me.
What have you done to someone else's ride lately?

Changed the oil in the Expedition for the first time on Sunday.
I watched a video on YouTube for "how to change the oil in your 2018, 2019 and 2020 Expedition" that just pissed me off royally. I pulled off the skids and searched relentlessly for the "yellow plastic drain plug." The only effin yellow anything under there was a sticker on the drive shaft. After lots of cursing, I found a video for "the quick way to change oil in a tuned EcoBoost F-150" where the dude mentions that between 2018 and 2019 Ford went back to an Aluminum pan after lots of complaints about the plastic getting brittle and breaking.

Also, the dude that asked me to build him some drawers for his 4Runner sent me this pic today.

So you built those drawers? Got any other pics?
His campsite looks great... wish I was out there.

I noticed a different wheel on the front passenger IIRC.. figured you cut it. That sucks.

At the Lexy dealer getting the Laundry Fairy’s LX serviced, if I drink 15 cups of this coffee, it should be almost a free oil change,

Did you look into trading the Laundry Fairy's ride for the LRD version? Remove the roof rack and decals.

What was the sticker price on that 4WP special?
This past weekend I spent most of it detailing the interior of my wife's S60 and my mom's X5. I also washed the exterior of both cars but didn't have time to wax them. But I really need to claybar my wife's S60 first before waxing it since it's time for it.
I'm really not happy with how my mom's 2015 X5 interior is wearing. It's only got 40k miles on it and it's showing way too much wear in my opinion.
Also ordered a set of weather tech mats for my wife's new XC90 that should be delivered next week. I also ordered the rear "trunk" mat for my mom's X5 at the same time for a Christmas present (I got her the front & rear weather tech mats as a Christmas present when she got the X5). I know some of y'all prefer the Husky mats now but my wife knows and likes the weathertechs already so I'm not going to try to force something new on her.

Since my little one is not racing BMX I decided to remove her "race" tires and put some old school Comp III's on it. Her race tires just looked like glorified street tires... can't have that on a BMX bike! 
Downside is that Tioga is no longer making these tires. I found one at one bikeshop online and one at another online place. Got one delivered and installed. Dang thing reminds me of 255/85/16's.. skinny things... skinnier than her previous tires. 
Looks pretty cool though IMO. Hope the other one does ship out, I just ordered it Saturday morning so fingers crossed. Worst case eBay has a few from England.. downside is they are proud of those things! I'll put the "race" tires on her other bike as its tires are dry-rotted and pretty wore out.

Damn it.. got a phone call from the second place that had the tire in-stock.. their system was incorrect... so had to order one off FleaBay from England.

hopefully I can find some time this weekend to wire them up. Need to hook up the Blue Sea’s box first, and at least try to do it right.
